....if two or more pokémon in the battle would have Lightingrod, what
would happens? Would the game crash?

You can't have more than two Pokémon on the battle field at once anyway. As
for two lightningrod-ers, maybe both get it or the one with the higher
speed?

No. I meant only two of your Pokémon could be on the battle field at once.
Anyway, if both have lightning rod, then I suppose the electric attack will
hit its intended target.

I highly doubt it'd crash. That's certainly the type of thing that would
have been foreseen. At a guess, I'd say the attack would hit whichever
Pokémon you actually aimed for.

Or, perhaps, the move would hit both at once. It's not like we can't
test this, isn't it? Just grab a couple of Lightningrodders and face
off against the reporter and her cameraman. One of them uses
Magnemite/ton, if I'm not mistaken.

I did exactly what you suggested, since this question wasn't exactly a
riddle for the ages, and it turns out that the Electric attack does hit the
intended target when two Pokemon the with Lightningrod ability are fighting
side by side. Another observation I made is that the Lightningrod ability
pulls even Electric attacks that have been Locked On to a target away from
the target.
